We were so excited to have The Varsity in Rome! However, we were sadly disappointed in the quality of the food. Burgers were dry, not seasoned and the smooshed. The bun was flatter than a pancake. I ordered Glorified Bacon Cheeseburgers. It had two very small pieces of shreds of lettuce that were almost invisible in the mayo. Fries were greasy and soggy. No seasoning. Onion rings were a great size, but also greasy and soggy. The cheese dog had very little cheese on it. The Orange Frost and Chocolate shakes were great. The customer service was awesome. Basil was patient and friendly. Hope the quality of the food improves as they smooth out their processes. Wasn’t worth the money spent at this point.

It’s amazing how we have a Varsity in Rome, Georgia. The food is simple and great for its value, and they even passionately say “Whatcha Have”? Also, the service is super quick. My only negative is that they don’t give you enough napkins. Especially since the restaurant is drive-through only at the moment. It’s called the “Greasy V”, and so it’s impossible to wipe down everything with just one napkin. Thus, you should bring some cleaning wipes in preparation. Fun fact - getting two naked dogs plus chilia and cheese on the side is better than getting the Chili Cheese dogs. You get more at a slightly cheaper value.

We came on opening day and got in and out. In less than half an hour! Great job! The bacon double cheeseburger is fantastic!! The cheese is salty and creamy and delicious, as well as the bacon is salty too yum!!! Onion rings are wonderfully seasoned Without being too soggy. Milkshakes are a good consistency to be able to drink through a straw! The orange tastes great like a creamsicle! The peach pie is delicious real chunks of peaches, although for a fried pie could be a bit crunchier for my taste. Overall, great experience and Great food.

Service seemed to be fine considering they were crowded from being newly opened, and really can not say anything about the atmospere considering it was drive thru only. But I was greatly disappointed with the food, and especially the price for the quality of the food that was given. I ordered the slaw dog, chili cheese burger and onion rings. The slaw dog was pitiful with a very small wiener, and very little slaw. The chili cheese burger was dry , and the meat patty was thin. The onions were ok, but I have had a lot better(sonic), and worse(burger king). The slaw dog was 3.00, and it was worth maybe 1.75, and that is me being nice. The chili cheese burger was 4.53, and it was worth 2.00, and again that is me being extremely nice. As you can tell If I could put a value on the food I would say it was probably worth half what they were charging for it. if not less.. Please do not waste...

Holy crap, this place is really expensive! I was excited by the novelty of there being a Varsity in Rome. I grew-up there, but am from Atlanta, so The Varsity was a regular place to go when visiting family there. I have loved it since I was a kid & couldn't see over their stainless steel counters. When my parents told me that Rome was getting one, I thought it would be a great treat whenever I visit them. However, I don't think I will be doing that. Four dogs, one sweet, fries, & onion rings was $30! Might just get three Walmart T-bones & save five bucks next time I visit.

The cashier was...
